[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 18685897, member: 19250"]As an h 10 collector the 38 o is just one of <20 dates, mm,variety I still need. Most of the ones Ive come across have been roached out! Hardly recognizable as a 38 o . Yours damaged yes...but beyond the one area not a bad coin. I have already realized that at my age, the availability of certain dates,mm,etc... may not be obtainable. That said I have in some cases accepted what was available, with hope of an up grade later. Its is the only course of action that is available as the clock is running...and times up maybe sooner than later. Now there are other key dates and mm's I also need..yet also at a crossroads...do I buy a 16D mercury that looks like it was a street find in a set of pretty decent coins? I say no! That will be a hole, and filled with another item that looks good in the set...not out of place Eduard I feel your frustration..yet you have a better than average specimen that to my liking is more acceptable than an roached out example of the date and mm.[/QUOTE]
